Ill have to start tapering the bricks also. Ive looked at "Les" build and those are done really well.http://www.fornobravo.com/forum/8/les-build-4207-3.html

It will be just fine. I had to do this for mine. Try to fix it on the next course as much as you can, or it will make closing your dome a bit of a PITA. if it is not a circle, it makes brick cutting a nightmare.

Thank you. i hope i can do this.

Similar to a Quebec oven shape...shouldn't be a problem.

Our dome is slowly rising. It was a pain in the rear cutting and trying to taper the bricks, id have to say it was hard than i had thought, figuring out the cut per brick per row was very tedious and aggravating. However we managed to move on.

Ya because we had to round out the oven(turned into a tear drop) so we had to add a keystone across the arch so it turned out that way

Id like to see a whole oven built spiral style, I surprised it hasnt reared its head yet.

It would have the advantage of not having to cut a special brick to the required width when finishing each course. Also it would probably be easier to ensure that the bricks overlap joints.

I need to be more like you V, I might accomplish something.
I like your whole set up. I wish I had all the room to work with as you have.
